Abstract: The wheel rotation counter (10) has a wheel rotation sensor (12) with two signal paths (18,20). The first is for a high-level current e.g. 14Ma. The second is for a low-level current e.g. 7Ma. The sensor output signal passes through wires (14) to a signal processing circuit (16).  A voltage source (22) is connected to an integrated circuit (30), connected to a main processor (32) which monitors the signal amplitude level. The signal from the wheels passes through low-pass filters (24,26) to an evaluation unit (28) and an analog/digital converter (36). The main processor has a timer (34) for measuring time intervals for measuring cycles.

Abstract: The invention concerns sheet buffering means for placement between paper handling equipment, such as a printer or a paper picker, and paper finishing equipment, for example, equipment for stapling and/or folding, which comprises at least a set of a front pair of rollers with rotating rollers for feeding of a sheet between the rollers and a rear pair of rollers with rotating rollers for feeding of a sheet between the rollers. At least one roller in each pair is driven by a common motor or a motor each, the front driven roller is disengageable by means of a clutch for holding a lead end of a sheet at the same time as the rear driven roller is driven so that the sheet becomes bent between the two pairs of rollers. The rear pair of rollers is stopped when the trail end of the sheet reaches the rear pair of rollers, whereby the sheet may sustain bent until it is desirable to feed it out, which is achieved by starting both of the pairs of rollers. The invention also concerns a method of buffering sheets.

Abstract: A milling tool includes a milling body and a plurality of insert-carrying cartridges mounted in the milling body. Each cartridge includes front and rear side surfaces which oppose leading and trailing walls of a pocket formed in the milling body. The cartridge also includes inner and outer flank surfaces which interconnect the front and rear side surfaces. The body includes a slot which opens into the front side surface at a location intermediate the ends of the cartridge, to divide the body into a rigid base portion and an expandable portion. The base portion has a seat for a cutting insert. A threaded hole is formed in the slot intermediate the slot ends to receive a threaded wedge screw. Tightening of the screw causes the expandable portion to be expanded into contact with the leading wall of the pocket and thereby push the base portion into tight contact with the trailing wall of the pocket. Accordingly, the cartridge is secured within the pocket by a tight frictional contact which resists chatter. The cartridge carries an adjusting screw to enable the cartridge to be adjusted in a direction along the axis of rotation of the milling body.

Abstract: A circuit for processing a supply voltage with a voltage peak to obtain an output signal with reduced or eliminated voltage peak, comprises a first capacitance and a second capacitance, wherein a controllable resistor is formed between the first and second capacitance in series to the same, which has a high resistance when a voltage at the first capacitance is smaller than an input voltage set value, and whose resistance is reduced to a lower resistance when the input voltage at the first capacitance is higher than or equal to the input voltage set value, so that finally, when the output voltage at the second capacitance reaches an output voltage set value, the controllable resistor is substantially no longer visible, but connects the two capacitances in parallel. The circuit is particularly advantageous as filter capacitance in a switching regulator, to achieve fast starting up of the switching regulator on the one hand and, on the other hand, simultaneously, fast charging of the second capacitance, wherein the energy of the voltage peak is used for charging the second capacitor more quickly.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an apparatus and a method for sterilization of at least one item with ozone gas. The method includes the steps of providing a housing having a sterilization chamber in which at least one item is placed; providing said at least one item with a first electrical potential; and supplying water vapour to said sterilization chamber. An oxygen containing gas is electrostatically ionized to a second electrical potential in a ionization unit. Based on said electrostatically ionized oxygen containing gas ionized ozone gas is generated in an ozone generator; said ionized ozone gas is supplied to said sterilization chamber for attracting said ionized ozone gas to the surfaces of said at least one charged item; and said at least one item is exposed to the ionized ozone gas for a predetermined time period. Said apparatus and method provides for a rapid, safe and inexpensive sterilization. A substantial increase in sterilization efficiency is achieved because the ionized ozone gas is able to make contact with the items to be sterilized on all available surfaces, even small or complex surfaces, due to the electrical potential difference between an item and the ionized ozone gas. Due to the relatively low temperatures and pressures being utilized by the method according to the invention, the sterilized equipment will exhibit reduced deformations and wear, and the item is ready for use substantially immediately after sterilization. This is especially advantageous when sterilizing complex medical devices such as ultrasound transducers and endoscopes, because the sterilization wear of these devices have been reduced significantly, which results in longer durability of these often very costly devices, which effectively reduces their operational cost. Indeed, even other non-medical types of equipment such as reusable hygienic articles may be sterilized effectively by the present invention.
